RE: Minutes, 19 January WebFonts WG meeting

Hello WG,

At the last call I mentioned that I will be traveling this week and we agreed to cancel the telcon. However, I believe I can make it this time (I am in Korea, so I will be up late with John D.). Please respond to this email if you're available and can make the call this Wednesday.

Thank you,
Vlad
